Haven't done that as of yet but is very fast with no lag on any gaming so far.

If all you're doing is editing pictures, I'd recommend a cheaper laptop, but if you're going to be using this for games, rendering, large video projects, ect. This is what you want.

I have not used for videos but should be fine, especially since the resolution is very good

Brett , I really haven't used it for photo / video editing. One thing I can say for sure is that it has a decent 2.4 GHz processor and good 4GB RAM with a superfast USB port.If you are comfortable using Win 8 OS (which I think is a usability irritation - pls check how Adobe and other graphics suites work with the new OS) then I think it is probably a decent laptop for the money you would spend.High end graphics editing using Adobe PS also should be possible with the Intel HD 4000 Graphics card that comes with the stock laptop.

Ah, if gonna use it for editing and renders, this machine is not a good choice.

I wouldn't advise it. For your purposes, and to ensure quality recordings, I would advise a laptop with faster processor speed and more memory. This is a decent little laptop for general purpose computing, but you require something with more robust capacity. If you're trying to keep it cheap, consider the Lenovo S415.

What are you using this for? Mixers are for live performance, not the best way to record. The Alpha is a good VALUE but not the best, You buy this because it is 1/2 the price of the Persons or Focusrite interface

Not sure, I have never used it for recording. It does appear to be HD video feed onto the screen I view it from.

I was able to record while doing other things. I am sure it depends on how much ram needed to do the other things. The device works great and well worth the money.

The onboard video will be fine for Minecraft, just make sure you have enough ram to share with it.

Also Recon3d is not ASIO compatible while this one is, which makes it perfect for recordings. Recon3d is known to have significant lags, see reviews.

It's good for simple videos with adequate light and sound. Keep in mind it is not a camcorder. It's fine for living room stuff and casual outdoor stuff, however you cannot zoom once it's recording.The video quality (and sound for video) is actually better than some portable blogging cameras (the ones specifically made for shooting low-res video)

It is for stage photo application.So it should be fine for motion taking video.Regards,kimoutlet

It's good for video editing and photo editing, it's not the highest quality card though. Great for everyday use though.

This is a very limited computer, it has a web cam with less than average quality. Of course you can record videos with it and upload them to youtube, but again they are low quality. More advanced video processing, editing, may be out of the league of this laptop.

If you're looking for a video card for gaming I'd recommend a card with higher specs. I use it for videos on my HTPC and light gaming, it performs as I need it to, but it lags.
